    Whoa ! Look at the queue !

    You're an opportunist brother, you should be the one to run the country, no doubt you need a loan to buy machinery, running marketing campaign, material to manufacture the ear muffs etc etc. look at the big picture, don't worry if you're in the red for a short period of time. Although in this case, you'll get your investment back soon enough !

    There would seem to be some ambiguity and confusion, you have haven't voted either way on the need for poetry.
    If you take the trouble to comment, have the courage of your convictions to clearly vote either way.

    YES for poetry

    No against poetry

    Well you have been hinting at it for a while so you'd better bring one on to relieve the suspense.

    I figure, given your appeal above, that it might take a very slender few votes to encourage you smiling giraffe (I see your Omegaman lived up to his namesake's fate - ref: Chuck Heston's filmography.) It might only need my one vote in fact - well you have that. Hey! if a good proportion of my enjoyment of your poetry may border on ironic, the other proportion admires the genuine effort and thought that goes into them.

    But I'm still even now trying to digest the subterranean power of your last contribution - the immortal The Ravens!

    So, as the voting currently stands, 100% are in favour of some poetry on the forum. However, only 1 unambiguous vote has been cast to date.
    Voting closes at 9pm tonight. Accordingly, I shall patiently await the result, and hopefully declare it soon after 9pm tonight.

    Good onya Sextus.......

    NO!

    and thus the percentage is even (hands down).

    at least

    plus those who are waiting for the drama that typically follows poetry on this forum.

    Sounds like their could be a hung parliament on this matter,
    and I seem to recall you enjoying a couple of the previous poems,
    does my memory fail me dear fellow?

    You poor thing must have been a neglected child in your childhood, that why you yearn for attention so desperately ! By responding to this thread, it should have soothed your pain to some degree.

    But I still have to say, in no uncertain term, the answer is no. I repeat, my vote is NO !

    I agree Oneonone, CunningLinguist spelt "no" quite unambiguously.

    However, I truly doubt that the long-necked grinner actually believes in democracy anyway, so I tend to think this voting is entirely moot. He tends to favour the fascist side of things, not democracy. This will eventually be shown by him ignoring any votes he disagrees with, or creating a crapload of more aliases (his particular fetish, it seems) simply to vote in his favour.

    But just in case there is chance he isn't a politician and will keep his word, I vote NO.

    And in languages he might be familiar with I also say nein, het and non!

    Well, if I was a neglected child, it would have been in my childhood I reckon, I couldn't have been a neglected child in my adulthood.

    By the way, are you sure you didn't misspell "YES" with a "No"

    And I thought you were starting to like me....oh well.

    Oneonone is an anagram of no,no,no -ee!

    Everyone's a critic these days.

    Well if poetry grows out of passion, negative or positive, there is plenty of that for you to harvest here!
